HEALTH BENEFITS

As far as nutrients go, mussels are very much a "power" food and contain high and ultra-healthy levels of the following:

Protein
Protein helps develop antibodies as well as builds and repairs the body tissues. That's essential to note for anyone looking to add seafood to a fitness diet. An average serving of mussels has 18g of protein.

Antioxidants
Fruits and vegetables can't take all the credit when it comes to providing antioxidants– mussels have them too!
